Product Spotlight: KidCo Magnet Lock Set

As we often do on the Child Safety Store blog, let’s take a moment to focus on a particular product that can help keep your kids out of harm’s way. The items we highlight are always chosen for their utility and popularity. Today’s entry is no exception: the KidCo Magnet Lock Set.

Keep Cabinets Locked Up Tight

Kids love to sneak into places where they are not allowed. Their curiosity is all a part of discovering the big wide world in front of them. Unfortunately, this can often get little ones into big trouble.

Take cabinet doors, for example. Whether in the kitchen or the bathroom, cabinets can seem awfully alluring and mysterious to a young mind. This is where so many mysterious bottles and colorful chemicals are kept. If a child drinks any of these, the results can be quite dangerous. It could end up in a rushed trip to the emergency room, or even become fatal.

The solution to this problem is twofold. First, someone should be watching. Active supervision is crucial for keeping kids safe. Next, this is where cabinet locks come in handy. Obviously, no one can stay completely vigilant 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A cabinet lock can offer an extra layer of protection.

Installing a childproofing lock can prevent everything from pinched fingers to potential poison ingestion. Beyond cabinet locks, it may also help to keep any potentially hazardous materials up high and out of reach of children all together. Beyond that, cabinet locks can be a real lifesaver.

To learn about various types of safety devices that you can consider, read our previous blog post about cabinet locks. For today, we’ll focus on one of our absolute best sellers: the KidCo Magnet Lock Set.

Now for the product of the hour: the KidCo Adhesive Magnet Lock set. This handy and versatile setup offers an effective and elegant solution to this potentially serious hazard. As we saw in the previous section, protecting children from getting into cabinets can save a life.

The peace of mind offered by KidCo’s Magnetic Lock Set is superb. These cabinet and drawer locks are easy to install. Thanks to the tough adhesive, which is included, you won’t need to break out the power tools. There isn’t any need for drilling or permanent damage to your furniture.
